Charges were dropped against Cincinnati Bengals RB Joe Mixon – but refiling is possible
Judge Curt Kissinger told The Enquirer he signed off on the dismissal but said the charge"could possibly" be refiled. Kissenger said a city prosecutor has spoken with the woman who filed the complaint and she was in agreement with the dismissal.
Cincinnati police issued a warrant on a charge of aggravated menacing for Mixon on Thursday, which quickly became national news. Mixon was accused of pointing a gun at a woman and saying, “you should be popped in the face and I should shoot you.” But there were few other details about what happened in court records.
Mixon’s agent, Peter Schaffer, issued a statement Thursday night saying, “It was a rush to judgment. They’re dropping the charges first thing in the morning. I really feel that police have an obligation before they file charges – because of the damage that can be done to the person’s reputation – to do their work. They should be held to a higher standard.”
